  • The Western Carolinian VOICE OF THE STUDENTS VOL. XXXVII, No. 33 Western Carolina University Thursday, February 10, 1972 Cullowhee, N.C, Exams made optional? Senate checks possibility A bill proposing that final exams be made optional to the student or abolished completely is being considered by the Executive ( ommittee of the Student Senate. Senate chief Sager Williams said the committee may change or revise the original bill, in uoduced by Senator Ann Marie Lassiter, to some form which they feel would receive approval most readily, The committee will then present "whatever they think they can sell" to the Senate for approval, said Williams. The bill is expected to be brought to the floor atone of the next two Senate meetings, Student Senate meets every Monday night at 6:30 in the I'ni versity tenter. Meetings are open to students. Should the bill pas^, it would then be presented to the Aca - demic deans of the I niversity for consideration bj the Stu dent-Faculty Senate, No word has yet been released by that Senate concerning the bill they received last week that proposed a student's right to repeal a course in order to drop a grade earned the first lime around. Bookstore should be "Most Improved" Jose Molina THE FLASH AND GAlETt of Spanish dance and music- win be capably displayed Saturday night by Jose Molina and his Bailes Espanoles. Jose Molina began dancing In Spain at the a»e of three, By the age of 17 he had performed throughout Europe. He made his S.S. debut on the "Tonight'' show when Sieve Allen was the host, then went to work for lose Greco. Five years later he •-tarted his own company, Molina is seen here with his prima ballerina, Antonia Mar line/, Tlie Bailee E>panoles will perform in Hoey Auditorium 11 8:15 prr. If Western Carolina Inner ■ sity were to give a "Most Improved" award this year, the University Bookstore would almost certainly win. Since moving to their new location they have made tremendous improvement. And, with the addition of new Strea- ter display fixtures everyone may see the difference. In the past, when the book store was crammed into their limited space in the I'niver- sity Center finding a book or a product was an all-day affair. But no more. With the addition of the new display fixtures nothing is a- bove shoulder level. Nothing is hidden behind something else, "We have been bombarded with students and shoppers say • ing—Hey you people have nev er had this before. Sure am glad you have now,' " said H. P. McCarroll who manages the bookstore. But McCarroll went on to say, "Vet we haven't increased our inventory or added new lines of merchandise; we've just place it where people can see it and find it now," McCarroll was extremely pleased with the new organization system for books. It is a co-ordinated effort with the various departments in the dif ferent schools of the I niver- sity, and each department has volunteered its help in making book selections, For example, the English Department is currently working in the bookstore placing books on the shelves by course num= ber, and in some cases even by instructor. Other departments are doing likewise. In addition to the books, other commodities in the store are being grouped into areas, a special cashier-clerk is now available to assist customer, CONTINUED Page 8.... "Star Trek" fans trek to N.Y. Con By CATHIE CALVERT NEW YORK, N.Y, (Cl\S)-- Niearlj 2,000 devotees of the television program "Star Trek" filled New York's Sutler Milton January 21-23 with t:ilk of trekkies, tribbles and phasers. 'Star Trek ( on," the first national convention of Trek fans, drew a mostly college crowd front New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut -and as far away as South Africa, Activities got off to a flying start when guest of honor Gene Koddenberry, originator and executive producer of the show, was greeted by a stand- CONTINCED Page 8. . . . A NEWS ANALASYS Our next president ??? 3j W, WAT HOPKINS Editor-in-Chief With the final appointment to the Presidential Screening Committee made, all that is left for the committee to do is to set up a meeting lime and dig in, Mrs. Patsy Scott, assistant professor of marketinghasbeen appointed by Wallace Hyde, Chairman of the Board of Trustees to fill out the faculty representation and complete the committee, Dr, Maurice Morrill, Dean of the Graduate School, and co- chairman of the committee said that he wants to arrange a time for the committee's first meet- ing as soon as he can, by next week if possible. Since the screening committee will submit three names to the Board of Trustees for selection, the final word will be with the board. The question now is, what types of men will be recommended? At the last board meeting, several ideas were thrown out as to the type of man the president of the university must be, "He should be first,'' one trustee said, "a good adminis trator, He should be well rounded, academically, athletically, politically. He should be able to give a good impression , he should have a good personality. He should be well respected in his field. Finally, one trustee said he should be enthusiastic. This tends to make one believe that the board is looking for a man who is similar to the type of man Dr, Pow is. If so, certain administrators and student leaders can sit back and relax. Dr, Pow's robust personality and progressive drive caused him a good deal of opposition with students, faculty and administrators. When he went to the hospi- tal rumor began concerning possible candidates for his office from within the univer- sity, Hyde might have unknow ingly given some backing for these rumors when he announced the first four faculty members of the screeningcom- mittee. With the announcement, he said that no deans of schools, except for Dr. Morrill, had been named to hold the politicking down. Dr, Morrill, he said, was near ing retirement age, and had no motive for further advancement within the university. Dr. Morrill, too, had served on the screening committee that recommended Dr. Pow, Reasons Dr. Pow had opposition were that 1) he was a ''foreigner," that is, he was from out of the region, out of the state; 2) he brought with him new ideas, set a goal for the university, and tried to build; 3) he was infamous for calling people on the carpet for not doing their jobs; 4) he channeled all the power within the university back to him- CONTINUED Page 8... .
